More 2NF

Our data model is still not in 2NF. The Record Label attribute has only one value for each CD, but we see the same Record Label in multiple CD rows. As we saw with Band Name, this duplication indicates that Record Label should be part of its own entity. Each Record Label releases one or many CD rows. Each CD is released by only one Record Label. Figure 7-10 shows this relationship with the data model in 2NF.
